photographed on my one-of-a-kind green towel ironing board--to february's edition of "westering woman" from barbara brackman....
a 400% jump in size. for a bit there, thought i had cut the blocks wrong as i have been known to do on occasion, but no, they were ok. also pulled out my leader/ender mod tumblers, a sometime project. not making a huge something with these, but the colors are so wow that had to play with them. thinking might end up with a small tabletopper or placemat. and, to nobody's surprise, have lined up a new scrappy project that has been on my "someday" list. it's a double wedding ring scrappy and will do this as my next leader/ender OR might just cut pieces and shoebox them for october retreat. it would be a good project for easy sewing while catching up and ogling others' sewing. another project that i'll be taking along is the "stars in a time warp" as i have decided on a setting, and might also bring along the farmer's wife blocks too. only making the twin size with 84 blocks, so most if not all will be done. *** our see-saw winter weather continues with today being just right for late february, but am missing yesterday's temps in the 50s....now back to regularly scheduled sewing!
PS--thanks for your comments on my cats; i wasn't fishing for compliments, only that i am my own worst critic sometimes...
Whoohoo, that IS a big jump in scale, but they look terrific! You are so right that this is a see saw winter with mud one day and deep freeze the next. My mini tumblers cut-pile grows but I haven't sewn any yet.
ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty dramatic change!
ReplyDeleteExcuse me, but did you really just say that a double wedding ring would be easy sewing? I don't know if that says more about your sewing skill or mine! : )
this will be my 3rd DWR...lol..they do get easier!
